13 claims

Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

3

3. The apparatus of claim 2, wherein the hypervisor to cause the data stored at the one or more corresponding HPAs to not be copied during the live migration includes the hypervisor to cause removal of the one or more corresponding HPAs from a dirty page bitmap that indicates what data is to be copied during the live migration, wherein the data to be copied is associated with execution of the application in the VM at the first host server.

4

4. The apparatus of claim 3, comprising the data to be copied during the live migration over a network connection between the first host server and the second host server.

5

5. The apparatus of claim 3, the application comprising a protocol stack application associated with a radio access network for layer 1, layer 2 or layer 3 protocol processing.

6

6. The apparatus of claim 5, comprising the data that is not to be copied during the live migration includes data generated by the protocol stack application during layer 1 protocol processing at the first host server.

7

7. The apparatus of claim 1, the invoked instruction comprises an X86 instruction for VMFUNC #1.

8

8. The apparatus of claim 1, comprising a digital display coupled to the circuitry to present a user interface view.

11

11. The method of claim 10, wherein the hypervisor to cause the data stored at the one or more corresponding HPAs to not be copied during the live migration includes the hypervisor to cause removal of the one or more corresponding HPAs from a dirty page bitmap that indicates what data is to be copied during the live migration, wherein the data to be copied is associated with execution of the application in the VM at the first host server.

12

12. The method of claim 11, comprising the data to be copied during the live migration over a network connection between the first host server and the second host server.

15

15. The at least one non-transitory machine readable medium of claim 14, wherein the hypervisor to cause the data stored at the one or more corresponding HPAs to not be copied during the live migration includes the hypervisor to cause removal of the one or more corresponding HPAs from a dirty page bitmap that indicates what data is to be copied during the live migration, wherein the data to be copied is associated with of the application in the VM at the first host server.

16

16. The at least one non-transitory machine readable medium of claim 15, comprising the data to be copied during the live migration over a network connection between the first host server and the second host server.

17

17. The at least one non-transitory machine readable medium of claim 15, the application comprising a protocol stack application associated with a radio access network for layer 1, layer 2 or layer 3 protocol processing.

18

18. The at least one non-transitory machine readable medium of claim 17, comprising the data that is not to be copied during the live migration includes data generated by the protocol stack application during layer 1 protocol processing at the first host server.

19

19. The at least one non-transitory machine readable medium of claim 13, the invoked instruction comprising an X86 instruction for VMFUNC #1.
